backpacking is a must read. It contains some of the best and some of

Couldn't agree more. Especially about carrying only the minimum of
water. Or barely more than the minimum, I guess. Still, water isn't
something you shouldn't mess around with even though it's heavy. I
always carry an extra 20oz bottle that I try to never open... just my
backup. Though I've had it empty and run out before... not good!

But this book is what got me started into lightweight once I got the
bug.

I just saw it last night in the Children's section of the library,
btw. Unless you're using his plans (which you could probably get from
one of us online), you can just check it out instead of buying it.

Thanks... Would love for someone to send me the plans as funds are
always in short supply..
